it's a bad economy so I should be happy to even have a job, BUT...

[nodanaonlyzuul]

when a co-worker does not know how to change font color in Word yet somehow makes a lot more money than me... *bangs head repeatedly on the table*

Your turn.

[kll]

after being laid off and relocating, i'm stuck making half of my last salary - doing a job i did 14 years ago.

i should excel at this position, but i'm too bored and unmotivated to give a shit.

my co-workers are insane - one in particular - to the point where it's not even entertaining, but borderline scary.

i walked to work today though. it took me 10 minutes (2 minute drive).

I work from home. My commute is from bed to the laptop. Took me about 2 minutes today.

[monkey]

i work for someone who says things like "you're pretty knowledgeable about computers for a girl" and "you're smart for a hispanic, are chileans the smart hispanics?" amongst other gems.

(i stay @ this place bc it pays well, hrs are flexible, and im actually doing interesting things sometimes. this is not a career option though, and i'm only doing this while i'm still in school.)

a co worker thought some song by OMD was Bananarama

I nearly spontainiously shat myself in horror

do you ever just bring the laptop over and work from bed? that's probably what i would do. that and masturbate a lot

Once I was done with that job, if I didn't want the person as a reference, I would kick them hard in the genitals.

Kll- that all sounds awful sans the walking to work part. That part is pretty awesome.

Mickill, I hate you. You are just like my boyfriend who also rolls out of bed and walks two feet to his computer for work :p I only work about 15 minutes driving distance from my work though so whatever.

You didn't answer the question. Are Chileans the smart Hispanics??? I NEED TO KNOW.

You masturbate for a living? Is your company hiring?

unfortunately, he's one of my best references.

i'm also going to add that for the 2nd time in 2 months, our "office manager" (i use the term loosely) has now forgotten to turn in our pay period info on time... and instead of getting paid today (which is standard if the end of the month falls on the weekend), we have to wait until monday. WTF.

the wench also literally just snuck her 2 kids into the conference room to put Shrek on the training TV, to avoid paying for daycare.

there goes my shopping trip to the Cabazon Outlets on Sunday...


see you later Kate Spade...

that just sounds like the most amazing place.

Actually talking of amazing places a pub in Islington,North London called The Angelic has the best toilets ever.It was down a dark spiral staircase and at the bottom was a little fountain thing and then they had 3 doors in olde wood style. Ladies/Gents and.....GIMPS! I didn't look inside there.And whilst in there having a pee they had an audio of Fawlty Towers playing.

Weird but good but nothing to do with the economy.

Cabazon.It sounds like a magic spell/chant or something.I think I'll go to bed now it's 3.30 am

i found out last week that our summer intern, who basically does whatever i need her to do, only makes a dollar less than i do per hour


i also have to deal with this prick who on a daily basis complains about me not doing work, yet every time we have a meeting dealing with the big project in the office, i am the one who everyone looks at for answers since i;m the only one who actually has any clue as to what is going on.
